Does a stuck P gear need repair?
1 Answers
Whether a stuck P gear needs repair depends on the situation. If it is caused by damage to the gear limit switch, brake light switch, or brake light fuse, then repair is necessary. Methods to release a stuck P gear: 1. Release the brake pedal and then press it again, then try to shift gears; 2. Turn the steering wheel slightly and then shift gears; 3. Restart the engine, press the brake again, and then shift gears; 4. Open the hood, disconnect the battery, then reconnect it, start the engine, press the brake again, and shift gears. The P gear is a common gear in automatic transmission models, usually located at the front of the gear shift console, in front of the R gear, designed to lock the axle when the car is stationary on a slope.
